This is not the bear found hiding in the crawlspace, but it probably looked like this.

A 350-pound bear apparently used a crawlspace as a hideout during New Jersey's annual black bear hunt.

A cleaner in Hopatcong called police when he noticed signs of a bear while he prepared a vacant house to go up for sale on Friday. An officer called state wildlife officials after he looked in the crawlspace and saw the bruin's head.
